"I'm trying to get back to the way I swung in 2010, 2011 and it's sort of hard because my body's changed quite a bit since then," the 29-year-old, whose muscular frame now is a far cry from the scrawny teenager of days gone by, told reporters.
The colors are relatively pure: When Guston uses contrasting strokes of black and reddish orange to make the prominent boxy shape in "Traveler III" of 1959, we recognize it as a harbinger of his late style, and not just because it seems to have two scrawny legs and big feet.
The chalkboards in painstaking cursive that misspell half the menu; the sad frites and scrawny mussels and refrigerated cheeses; the old-guard dishes put through modern contortions until they end up looking like Gérard Depardieu wearing Jeggings — we put up with these signs of forgery because we want the real thing so badly.
His social media feeds don't need to be filled with video after video of him squatting 600 pounds or flexing his biceps like some formerly scrawny actor trying to tell us he got pumped up for a Spider-Man movie; it needs to show he's a well-rounded person who can laugh at himself.
Over the course of these brief excerpts of the film, we have been introduced to many things: the best line of dialogue ever uttered on screen; The Joker as a scrawny, drugged-out, '90s Tarantino villain; and a new world record for the most times anyone has said "bad guys" in a 80-second period.
Growing up in California, she was a "scrawny, miserable, impoverished, marginalized, unpopular teenager" who left home with a GED at 17, briefly escaped to Paris, where she was sometimes too poor to eat, came home to graduate from San Francisco State University, then earned a master's in journalism from the University of California, Berkeley.
It was textbook Ricky Morton: the smaller member of the legendary Rock n Roll Express mastered the art of getting his ass kicked by his opponents, working the crowd into a fever pitch as the ultimate scrawny underdog, before laying off a hot tag to his partner, Robert Gibson, just as the tidal wave of heat crescendoed.
It was a mashup of mayhem, real and imagined: old people buried alive by their friends' kids who had cleaned out their bank accounts; a woman held captive and raped in a storage locker for months; a bullied office worker avenging himself violently; a scrawny teen-ager trying to defend Islam by blowing up a school.
Miuccia Prada, too, seemed to take up travel as a thematic for a show that cast models as vagabonds, dressing them for the road in skinny cycling pants or chunky sweaters or nylon blousons, burdening their scrawny frames with bulging rucksacks (Prada's first commercial success, in 1984, was a nylon backpack) from which brogues were hung hobo-style.
Unlike the muscled jock who picks on the scrawny nerd, the straight teenager who harasses the gay kid or the jilted boyfriend who uses the cover of the internet to mar his ex's reputation, these celebrity cases can make us feel like mere mortals peering up at a couple of Greek gods shooting lightning bolts at each other.
The Celine show that closed Paris Fashion Week with a fantastic display of duds for scrawny rockers designed by Hedi Slimane (and shown on models that looked like the love children of Buster Poindexter and Dee Dee Ramone) was held in a dark pavilion constructed at great cost for the occasion on the grounds of Les Invalides.
Even those who weren't born when Rodgers was a scrawny, 100-foot-3-inch high school freshman feel as though they know him; he made an impression on the teenagers on Pleasant Valley High School's newly crowned state championship football squad by delivering a pep talk by video that they watched before they won a state title in December.
Alhamza snagged only about four hours of sleep, so when he emerges bleary-eyed from the bathroom of his Airbnb the next morning with pillow marks still etched on his bearded face and a t-shirt that reads F*CK YOU hugging his scrawny torso, he looks, understandably, less than thrilled to find me sitting on the couch waiting to talk to him.
Yet, right when political humor could be ripe for the plucking by the right person, the 57-year-old MacDonald—who once made a living by cracking jokes about the week's news as the scrawny, smartass anchor of Saturday Night Live's Weekend Update—spends the entirety of his hour-long special avoiding anything that could be remotely deemed as topical.
At a later dinner I enjoyed a bowl of mussels (a bit too scrawny) in a zesty ginger-lemongrass broth, followed by a perfect risotto of the day: cheese- and wild-mushroom-riddled; firm (not soupy as so many restaurant versions seem to be today); edged with grilled shrimp and cherry tomatoes; and topped with a speckling of Parmesan flakes speckled.
When he first meets Viola-as-Sebastian, he and his friends are pretty rude to him — they assume he's a freshman because he's so scrawny, and they think he's super awkward when it comes to regular guy conversation (to be fair, bro-versation is completely new territory to Viola) — until Viola's friends from Cornwall help her pretend to be a total ladies' man.
I was at what should have been a farmers' market in Berkeley, California, last year when a throng of black-clad antifascists tried to scrap it out with far-right ralliers in the middle of a park named after Martin Luther King Jr. I watched scrawny college students get pummeled by hulking, be-swastika-ed ex-soldiers and ex-law enforcement officers in motorcycle gear.
To my immense frustration, I didn't have a pen that worked, and I was too shy to ask anybody if I could borrow one … I simply sat and thought, for four (delayed train) hours, while all the details bubbled up in my brain, and this scrawny, black-haired, bespectacled boy who didn't know he was a wizard became more and more real to me I began to write Philosopher's Stone that very evening.
In real life, metalheads seldom make the news for nice reasons; two of the most prominent images of metal fans to hit our current news cycle were both utterly contemptible—the video of a scrawny white neo-Nazi in a Slayer shirt sucker-punching a woman at Charlottesville's deadly "Unite the Right" rally, and the recent malicious felony assault conviction of Jacob Goodwin, a white supremacist who brutally assaulted a black man named DeAndre Harris there that same weekend and who can be seen proudly wearing a Suffocation shirt on his social media profile.
